Quit buying comics just for the cover art

My reading time has doubled since I pick stories for the plot.

But like... you can still buy for the cover and care about the story. They're not separate things.

My buddy picked up this comic with a wild cosmic cover on a total whim. He got so into the weird world inside that he tracked down the whole back catalog. Now he's the one explaining the lore to me at coffee.

Totally! @sage_schmidt6 has a great point there. I've grabbed so many books just because the cover looked amazing, and then gotten completely sucked in by the story inside. The art is what makes me pick it up off the shelf, but the writing is what makes me come back for the next issue. It happens to me all the time, and it's the best way to find new series I end up loving.
